@carlsiddorn3340 some top RUclips guys these days. I like, diagnose Dan, milligan auto diagnostics, daves autocenter, royalty auto service, mighty car mods and matt armstrong for entertainment value. And baz ofc!
I got this done as a preventive measure on my 2013 125bhp Fiesta with 80k on clock. Mechanic reported back it was in decent shape. Nothing clogged up in the pickup etc. Has been serviced every year by Ford for first 7 years and decent independents since then. So make of that what you will.
I think personally like anything these days. Use the right oil. Proper maintenance and you're halfway there. I like these engines and think they get a bad press. Just forget the stupid belt will last 150k nonsense. My wife's was coming up to 9 years old with 47k on the clock. Wet belt done about a month ago. With no issues before or after. Great channel mate. Always a good watch!
Did this job on my Focus the other week. Was expecting to see the pickup filter clogged and a bad looking belt (10 yrs, 95k miles) but was all surprisingly clean. Ive serviced it once a year and always used the ford spec oil, made me start to think the problems are coming from people chucking any old oil in it in order to save a few quid. Great vid as always
@@RideBikes_Walkplacesdefinitely a possibility but I would still place inadequate servicing as the main problem as in my experience people suck at maintaining their equipment properly.
@@RideBikes_Walkplaces I think you might be right here - ethanol in the oil rotting the polymer of the belt.Caused by too many cold starts and low tension in the rings driven by a drive for efficiency.
Nice video Baz, thanks. My girlfriend owns a Ford Fiesta 1.0 ecoboost nonturbo 65 hp, 2017, 90.000 km's. It had new belts mounted the end of March and they turned out to be like new. The reason: I change the oil each year and use the spec C948, which is recommended by Ford. Now she can drive this car another 10 years. A lot of these cars are neglected and then the belts fall apart, and the fallen off pieces block the oilintake so there is too little oilpressure. Do regular and proper maintenance and run your vehicle for a long time, that is the cheapest and best way!
I agree with proper timely servicing of these high tech engines...I have a 2017 Chevy Malibu 1.5 L with 84,000 miles which runs just fine...but ignoring the computer or not reading the manual & missing just 1 service will result in major component failure...!
If ye think that crank pulley bolts tight, give Golf 5 rear wheel bearing bolts a whirl. :-) Sons built like 2 muscly people squashed together into one - I let him unwind them. He was hands on knees & puffing after undoing just one. They finally get easy to turn when the last threads out. Until then, they're murder tight. I torqued the newies back in. Spec is 180 nm, then 180 degrees. I managed 180 nm & 90 degrees using the biggest breaker bar for the final "180 degrees". Not a hope could I get another 90 degrees without the car or world turning & not the bolts. I muttered a quick "Click!" & decided it was guttentite enough.. Great informative video as always Baz - Gratitudes Sir.
Lovely work done. I'm totally agree as you said these engines are great little units. Using the right genuine oil and specs and services every 6000 miles, i'm sure they would last a long time. Great video 😊👍
@@jothain Yes, originally they say the life of the car but then they changed it to 100,000 miles. Tbf in the UK 100,000 majority of cars probs get scrapped lol
I've said it to everyone for a long time. Synthetic oil won't rot rubber depending on type. The Castrol oil recommended by Ford or other equivalent that meets or exceeds their specs should be fine too, but to be safe use the Castrol. The problems start when hydrocarbons start getting introduced into the oil, so extended service intervals, missed oil changes etc etc....that's when the damage starts. Having a "full" dealer service history isn't enough like your customer here don't cheap out, change it every 5/6k like we all used to in the old mineral oil days I reckon you'll get the full life out of the belt.
oil change every 8000 miles. 190.000 miles on my HDI 1.4 and oil is changes every 12.000 miles. I do use synthetic oil. The manufacturer recommends to change the oil every 18.000 miles. Is 8.000 miles recommended by Ford? To change the oil that often is really expensive in the long run compared to the engine in my car.
Brilliant video I just bought a ford fiesta ST 52,000 miles on it I ask them to change the timing belt on it after watch your video I feel a bit guilty now 😆
Great video. I am panicking about my wee eco boost. Very low mileage only 24k. 63 plate. Getting checked over by garage soon. Serviced every couple of year so hoping all well
I preferred chains until I bought an N47 BMW. Having said that, I've changed the oil every 8k with synthetic LL04, and it's still running sweet & quiet after 10yrs/130k miles. Neglected servicing and bore wash diluting the oil was a big factor in the notorious chain failures.
The only part that really matters is frequent replacement with fresh, good quality oil & filter. Half the mfr's recommended interval is about right. Formal, full service can be at specced intervals.
Done so many of em Baz . Sometimes that 13mm feed screw siezes solid. And those 13mm nuts sometimes snap no matter how much heat. Then it's new manifold! Least ya got it off. I just slacken those 13mm to allow a bit of movement to get heat shield off. Yeah those feed pipes are a pain. The newer engines you can get em out easy as they must have moved them slightly. The turbos always go anywhere from 80k miles above. I think it's the long service intervals personally. At least it didn't chuck the oil into intercooler. When ya clean em out a week later it comes back with Adblue faults. P2002 Or nox catalyst below threshold due to oik damaging nox catalyst. They keep me in a job these 2litre transits haha
Great 👍 I will be coming to you Baz when my 2019 ecosport ST Line needs it’s belts replacing .

And is there anything you might suggest ? Thanks for this detailed video 👍
I'M REALLY IMPRESSED WITH YOUR IN-DEPTH KNOWLEDGE AROUND THIS JOB. I WILL NEED MINE DONE IN THE NEXT YEAR OR SO. COULD YOU TELL ME WHERE YOUR GARAGE IS AND APPROX HOW MUCH THE WHOLE JOB COSTS PLEASE AS I DONT THINK I WOULD TRUST ANYONE ELSE TO BE SO METHODICAL ABOUT HOW THIS JOB IS DONE. MANY THANKS. P.S.

When tightening the crank bolt how did you stop the pulley from twisting on the first torque ? I end up counter Turning them I'm sure there's an easier way
From people's comments on this and other channels, I conclude there is an unknown or unconfirmed issue causing many of these problems. Owner abuse mainly due to lack of oil changes or wrong oil is possible, but Ford themselves don't seem too bothered about this. In my C-Max owners manual Capacities and Specifications section for 1.0 three cylinder ecoboost. Page 273 to 275: It states: you can use up to 1 litre of 5W30 oil between service intervals rather than 5W20. So Ford themselves say you can use up to 22% (1litre in 4.6litres) of the 'wrong oil' in this engine. Duh. So why do some 'perfectly serviced' cars destroy their wet belts at low mileage? Belt quality variability? Mechanical Issue causing excess belt stress..such as eccentric camshaft gear drives or faulty tensioner? Petrol in the oil due to piston/bore tolerances and short journeys? Many claim servicing is not the issue, so what is THE TRUTH? Truth is in short supply these days..but Ford will know the real reason.
How long did it take you to become fully confident in doing these belts? I am an apprentice and don't do belts at all where I currently work and I was just looking at how involved it can really get, it all looks a bit daunting to me
Hi baz great video . Got engine stripped to change belts ,now run into problems the exhaust vvt camshaft pulley is knackered, the camshaft is moving about 15 degrees freely from the hub . Any advice. Thanks

Always was serviced every 6k miles with Ford oil and parts and only has covered 42k miles but has reached 10 yrs now.... Ford want a insane amount of money for the job ...
Using a wire brush has a tendency to throw pieces of wire inside of the engine. This is reason why the wire wheel gets smaller. Caterpillar corporation doesn’t allow any type of abrasive styles of cleaning of gasket surfaces to prevent contamination .Scrap cleaning with a razor blade tool is a safer alternative.
Totally agree with you Baz, these are good engines when looked after, I like you have done many of these on low and high mileage cars, all the ones with patchy history the belts are breaking up badly and the ones that have been looked after are in very good condition, all the haters need to blame themselves for a lot of the issues
I got a new coolant tank fitted in the same car because it was all stained and I couldnt see the coolant level, but now the coolant has gone into a very dark colour where its hard to see the level again whereas the coolant tank on this video looks clear, any idea why?
the recommended torque multiplier has a "5 to 1" gear reduction so, when you turn input nut of torque multiplier 90 degrees, it only turns crank pulley bolt 18 degrees. Therefore, due to 5 to 1 gear reduction, it needs five 90 degree turns of torque multiplier input nut to achieve the required 90 degree tightening at the crank pulley bolt.
@RetiredVehicleTech-nk5ch thanks. that's what I did the last time was 90 on the input of the 5/1 multiplier think it was 5 times. Just making sure it was not 5x 90 of the bolt haha
Own one of these ecoboom for just over 2 years had FSH. Asked the supplying dealer if they would do the belt after hearing all the stories of the wet belts. They said there was no need as Ford say 10 years or 150,000 miles. Our daughter who had passed her test 6 months before was driving when the belt destroyed itself. She had the sense to quickly realize that she had lost power steering and brakes but was able to stop safely. The engine was rebuilt it bent 3 valve but we were able to save the engine. Ford customer services were useless. Will never buy a Ford again. Have done loads of timimg belts on vehicles over the years but would not do an ecoboost myself needs an expert. Wish we had never bought the car. Service it now at 6,000 miles oil change seem like a backward step to the cars we had 40 years which also had an oil change at 6,000 miles oil was not as good back them all 20/50. Excellent videos really enjoy them.

Found the problem,Crankshaft pulley washer and crank pulley was wet with oil,cleaned with brake cleaner and torqued the correct way.
Ford says the belt will last 150k miles on annual services. Its pretty clear that they dont. These wet belts are exepnsive to replace and have no benefit over a dry belt. An engine that requires a very specific oil is a bad secondhand buy.
